thank you very much Ed Adams for your time,and info . i have no idea who is who ? with the Lawton. I came across this artical about the largest slave holders of the 1860 slave census schedule,beaufort SC. It is reported that he had 88 slaves in st lukes parish,beaufort i'm intrested in this particular Joseph A Lawton because of his slave involement in st Lukes Parish,Beaufort SC.it appears he had slaves there,But did not live there according to the census of 1850 & 1860. the census only mention a Joseph A lawton from Barnwell,SC
